Wear your Heart on your Sleeve

November 28, 2007

Okay, so we’re green. We cart our groceries in cloth bags, compost our coffee grounds, and get our news online. But how green is your closet? For many of us, it’s last spot left in our homes to get a green makeover. Thanks to Heart on your Sleeve, making eco-friendly clothing choices no longer means sacrificing your style.

The conscientious Kensington boutique is the first exclusively eco-friendly clothing retailer in the city. Owner Natalie Stephenson is proud to stock all-Canadian, cruelty-free, environmentally conscious clothing from designers like Toronto-based Thieves and Passenger Pigeon, Grace & Cello of Montreal, and Mothertrucker and Devil May Wear from Vancouver.

Let Heart on Your Sleeve help you green your closet with stylish clothing made from sustainable fabrics, including hemp, bamboo, lycocell and organic cotton. Every item in the shop is tagged with a checklist touting its earth-friendly qualities. They even offer Carbonfreetm Shipping, a Carbonfund.org program that calculates a carbon offset for each shipment and uses the funds to support worthy environmental causes like reforestation and renewable energy creation.

Why not add a glimmer of conscience to your closet next time you need to expand your wardrobe? Green really is the new black.
